lingo-l Stupid script window!
I get really annoyed by the key bindings in the script editor. Does anyone know how, without using an external editor (which is even more irritating) I can set keys like [ctrl]+[right-cursor] to the Windows default of next word, instead of next script. I just can't get out of the habit because this is a shortcut I use all the time when editing other files. - Robert [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

- Original Message - From: Mark A. Boyd [EMAIL PROTECTED] If there's a way, I'd love to hear it, too. In case you aren't aware, though, you can use [Alt]+[Cursor keys]. I haven't been able to train my muscles into that tiny variation, but you might have more success. Ah, I knew someone had mentioned something before; I think it was you that told me that a few months ago, but I totally forgot what you said. I doubt very much that I'd be able to get fully used to it because I'd have to think about it too much. Every so often I'll press the usual key combination by mistake. It's bad enough that I keep typing semicolons in Lingo (and putting then in PHP, aarhg!); at least I usually spot those quickly and backspace 'em! If no-one comes up with something, I'm sending it to the wishlist. Maybe it'll make it into D10 ;-) - Robert [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

On the contrary, it's easy to believe: I meant the key labelled alt on my Powerbook Bronze keyboard! It sits between the Ctrl key and the Cmd key. -A.

Doh! right you are! I didn't remember that Apple added that little reminder label onto the Option key when the web started referencing the alt key to do things. -Buzz At 9:33 PM +0200 8/11/02, you wrote: If there's a way, I'd love to hear it, too.

OK. In Swedish the Option key has always been called the Alternativ key. -A. Doh! right you are!
